The application of the PMDS is a bone of contention

When asked about their responsibilities the subordinates response is: “This is not your farm”.

-

Subordinates do not sign PAs as they have not received instruction from their provincial office.(A total misunderstanding).

-

They want to be trained and receive performance incentives yet they do not want to sign PAs, which are the basis of training and development; salary progression and other performance incentives.

-

Other staff members who have signed and have been evaluated are discouraged because they have not received any feedback, they got the same evaluation mark(3) and the same percentage (1%) and are therefore not encouraged.
